Google Chrome is one of the most popular browsers which is versatile, dynamic and compatible with most current operating systems but like any application it is prone to failures and one of the most delicate is that the pages do not load, this is something serious since that if we access Chrome it is precisely to view the content of a website, this error can be caused by factors such as:
Error factors
- Error in the local network service (which we must review and if this is the case, call the provider).
- DNS failed to resolve domain name.
- Browser or destination maintenance.
Whatever the cause TechnoWikis has a series of options to provide a comprehensive solution to this error and with this to be able to open and navigate in Chrome without problems..
1 Restart connection from Terminal
Step 1
Our first method will be to run some commands in the console, we can use the Terminal or the CMD Command Prompt, in this example we are going to open the terminal as administrators:
Step 2
We accept system permissions:
Step 3
We execute the following command to free the IP address which may be saturated:
ipconfig /release
Step 4
Now we are going to release the cache memory which is created as we visit the websites and an accumulation of this will cause us to have problems in Chrome, for this we execute the following:
ipconfig/flushdns
step 5
Now we are going to renew the IP address with the command:
ipconfig /renew
step 6
Finally we are going to restore winsock which is the programming interface that allows communication between Windows and the TCP / IP protocol, we execute the following command:
netsh winsock reset

When the session starts we open Chrome to see that the sites work:
